Job description

Step into ING's International Talent Programme (ITP) - Technology (CIO), an 18-month graduate experience designed for ambitious technology graduates who want to accelerate their careers while working on real-world challenges that impact millions of customers.

You'll work alongside experienced engineers, architects, product specialists and technology leaders, solving complex problems, building innovative solutions and developing the skills needed to thrive in a fast-paced digital environment.

Your career, accelerated

Our ITP is more than a graduate program. It's an opportunity to explore different areas of technology, discover where your strengths lie and build the foundation for a successful career in engineering, platforms, data and digital innovation.

Throughout the programme, you'll complete three rotations designed to broaden your experience and accelerate your development:

• First rotation: immerse yourself in a technology team and gain hands-on experience delivering solutions, improving systems and contributing to real projects from day one.
• Second rotation: expand your perspective through a new challenge, with the opportunity to undertake an international assignment within ING's global technology network.
• Third rotation: deepen your expertise by joining a different technology team, building broader capability across engineering, platforms, data, cloud or digital delivery.

Beyond your rotations, you'll contribute to strategic technology initiatives that support ING's growth and transformation, collaborate with technology professionals and fellow graduates from around the world, and receive structured learning, mentoring and coaching throughout the programme.

From modernising banking platforms and enhancing customer experiences to leveraging cloud technologies, automation, data and AI, you'll have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact from day one.

What we're looking for

We're seeking curious, driven and adaptable graduates who are passionate about technology and excited by the opportunity to learn, grow and solve meaningful problems.

You'll bring:

• A Bachelor's or Master's degree completed within the last two years in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Technology, Data Science, Cybersecurity or a related discipline.
• Strong academic results.
• Up to two years' professional work experience, with demonstrated workplace experience highly valued.
• Excellent communication, interpersonal and problem-solving skills.
• A collaborative mindset and the ability to build strong relationships.
• Curiosity, initiative and a willingness to challenge the status quo.
• An interest in people, culture, leadership and the future of work.
• A global mindset and openness to international experiences.

We'd also love to hear about any coding projects, hackathons, internships, certifications, university projects, leadership activities, volunteering or other achievements that demonstrate your potential and passion for technology.

What's in it for you?

• Opportunity to complete an international rotation within ING's global network.
• Structured learning, development, mentoring and coaching to accelerate your career growth.
• Exposure to senior leaders, strategic projects and meaningful work from day one.
• Access to ING's extensive learning platforms and development resources.
• A supportive and inclusive culture where you can be yourself and thrive.
• Competitive employee benefits, including discounted ING Health Insurance, an additional Rest Day and an IMPACT Day to support volunteering.
• A permanent role at ING upon successful completion of the programme.

Please note: Applicants must be Australian Citizens or Permanent Residents at the time of application.

Our International Talent Programme is scheduled to commence in late October 2026.
